Disadvantage: the demo version which if for free only handles a maximum of 20 books. Advantage of CC is that it can search on almost everything you can search on in the original Calibre app itself.
In CC when you connect the first time CC will ask where in which folder your books are located. You can, if you wish, use Settings, Connecting to Calibre, Cloud Connection to disable Wireless device connection and Content server connection if you don’t use these. In CC goto Settings, Connecting to Calibre, Cloud Connection, Cloud provider and choose Library on device or SD card. Finally I use Calibre Companion (CC) on the phone as library manager for the books stored on my phone. The sync may take quite a long time (dependent on the number of books) because Foldersync has to check EVERY file to find out which ones have changed. So, you will to start the sync manually when something has changed in your Calibre library. Disadvantages: Foldersync does not know when and what has changed on Onedrive. The advantage of Foldersync is that you can set it up oneway, so, there is no fear that your Calibre Library will be corrupted. Ensure the sync is one way: from Onedrive cloud to local storage on the Android device. In Foldersync set up a Folderpair to sync Onedrive to your local storage. On Android devices I do NOT use Onedrive. Browse for the local Onedrive folder and select the button Use the previously existing library at the new location. Use the Calibre button on the ribbon and choose Switch/create library. Tip: you might speed this up by copying your Calibre Library on a USB memory stick and then copy it in the local Onedrive folder. Check regularly if Onedrive has finished syncing (took another 2 days). Make sure you choose the Calibre Library. In Settings you clear the box Files on Demand and in Account you use Choose folders to choose the folders you want synced to Windows device. On other Windows devices you open the Ondrive app. 
This may take a big while (two days for my 5000+ books: see Restrictions above to understand why).
Onedrive will sync the whole Calibre library to the cloud. When moving is finished exit Calibre and Resume syncing (if you paused it) or restart Onedrive. Depending on the number of books this may take a while but you can monitor progress. Choose Move library to a new location and select your local Onedrive folder. 
Start Calibre, click the Calibre button on the ribbon and choose Switch/create library.Make at least one copy of your Calibre Library, preferably on an external disk.First pause syncing on Onedrive or exit it completely Don’t kill me if it doesn’t for you I use Microsoft Onedrive on the laptop and tablet, and Foldersync and Calibre companion on my phone.Ĭaution: never change something in Calibre while Onedrive can sync.
